- Does it work on soft cheese like mozzarella?
- Not well. The drum is made for hard cheeses such as Parmesan and Pecorino. Soft cheese clogs the holes and smears instead of shredding.
- Is it dishwasher safe?
- Yes. The drum and other removable parts are dishwasher safe. Hand washing the body keeps the crank mechanism working smoothly.
- How does it compare with a box grater?
- It is safer and gives more even results on hard cheese, but it is bulkier and slower to set up. A box grater is quicker for small amounts and takes less space.
- Can it grate chocolate or nuts?
- Yes. Chilled chocolate and firm nuts grate well in the drum. Very soft chocolate will clump, so chill it first.
- Does the base stay put on the counter?
- Usually on smooth surfaces. On textured, wet or uneven counters the base can slide, so dry the counter first and press it down firmly.
